HTML:There's a different rhythm to life in small-town Mill Pond, Indiana. And with the easy pace come friendships that are built to last and love that starts out on a slow simmer... Charming boutiques, picturesque farms, and a growing foodie scene have turned Mill Pond into a tourist destination. And thanks to the culinary skills of Paula Hull, its beautiful rural resort is leading the way. The widowed mom left behind the stress of the New York City restaurant world to spend more time with her two young children. And now she's ready to see if there's more out there for her than being a chef and single parent... Chase Atwood is the local good guy with a bad reputation. He's a respected business owner and trusted friend, but the drop-dead gorgeous bar owner usually has women beating down his doorâ??and Paula knows to keep her distance. His burgers and beer, on the other hand, are not off limits. But their mutual admiration is always on the back burnerâ??until Chase turns up the heat. Soon he's determined to prove to Paula that he's the one key ingredient missing in her l No library descriptions found. |

Mill Pond #2
Cast of characters – there were many – with side stories aplenty
Writing – more of a diary than an immersion into the action of the story
Food – plenty of meals and ingredients listed that made me want to get out a cookbook or google online
Romance – there was some but it was rather tame and late to the party
Hero – Chase, a handsome hunk that had women chasing after him – why did he want Paula?
Heroine – Paula, a widowed mother of two and a chef – she had the hots for someone other than the hero for half the book and that someone was a loser.
Storyline – had potential
Characters that may show up in future books in the series:
*Tyne – another hunk and stellar cook
* Daphne – a woman in love with the wrong man
* Maya – sweet, abused teenager with siblings that also are in need
* The younger persons working in the kitchen
* Paula’s mother
I had high hopes for this book but it never drew me in even though the elements for a good read were there. I never really warmed up to Paula and felt the story a bit of a plod most of the time. I have a feeling that this book will appeal to someone looking for a small town romance who likes a modest and moderate story telling style rather than one that immerses the reader within the pages.
Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Books for the ARC. This is my honest review.
2-3 Stars – depending on vendor/website ( )
